Telephone 24 BEAVER STAKE CONFERENCE Although the attendance at the regular quarterly conference of the Beaver Stake held here Saturday and Sunday was not as large as was expected, those in attendance were Elder Mark E. Petersen and well paid for their presence. Elder John H. Taylor thrilled the audiences with their messages. Elder Petersen, the junior member of the Council of Twelve Apostles, was making his first visit to Beaver. lie was favorably impressed with the community, but made some suggestions for improvement. His most poignant criticism was relative to the consumption of a quarter of a million dollars worth of beer, liquor and tobacco in Beaver County during last year. He urged more temperance among the people. Almost a complete reorganization of the stake was ef- fected at the conference. Four new bishops were set apart by the visiting Ajx)stle, also a new member in the stake presidency and one new high council member. With the exception of the YWMIA, every stake auxiliary was reorganized. Under the direction of Elder Taylor, of the Council of Seventy, a new council of the 12th Quorum was installed. Considerable comment was made by the visiting officials regarding the ending of the war and the responsibility of Americans in establishing a lasting peace. PREPARING FOR 1947 With the end of gasoline rationing and the beginning 91 again, the importance of preparing for the big centennial in 1947 looms big on the horizon of Utah's postwar plans. The part that the small cities along the highways of the state will play in attracting and impressing the traveling public cannot be minimized. High upon our list of postwar plans should be the cleaning up and beautifying of our cities and towns. Beaver is no exception to tjiis rule. A short ride around the town will and convince anyone of the necessity of a vigorous clean-u- p beautification campaign. Much of the preliminary work can fie accomplished with little outlay of cash. Fences can be and sheds and barns up. And straightened repaired, painted a general clean-u- p around our places could be effected at a very small cost. In regard to public property a definite program should be outlined for the beautification of our parks and roadsides. It will not be necessary for our returning veterans to rake leaves if Utah's public officers sense the need for preparing our state to receive the influx of visitors which will come to participate in the 1947 celebration. Now that the war has ended every Utahn has a responsibility in putting our "houses" in order and lending a hand to "dress up" our town and state for the centennial. The time is short now. Beaver is no exception so lets be among the leaders in the state. Let's be able to point with pride to our city, its public places and its individual homes. of Chas. H. Tozier, head of the visual education department, Harvard University and party of Boston, Massachusetts, are heading into Utah's Monument Valley this week. Dr. Tozier's visit to Utah is significant in that Utah's scenic attractions, her geological wonders, her rivers, mountains and deserts strike a greater response in the famed doctor's heart than other scenic attractions in the U. S. So impressed is this Harvard professor with what he found in Utah that he is returning to set up a permanent visual education exhibit of Utah scenes at the well known eastern hall of learning. The party was met at Zions by David H. Mann of the Utah State Department of Pubilicity and Industrial Development, who gave Dr. Tozier valuable information and direction and that will enable him to enlarge the scope of his Dr. BUB8GK1TTION KATES Year, $2.50; 6 Mo. $1.25; 3 Mo. 75o.

Failure to continue bond buying past the danger stage could nullify all of the curbs the people of Utah have set up through their purchase of nearly a half billion dollars in all types of War Bonds since May, 1941. The announcement by Treasury Department officials of the beginning of a Victory Bond Drive in October emphasizes 1 the necessity of continued bond buying.

There Is on argument relative to superiority of Utah celery, the fact Is attested by eastern buyers without quibbling. One American Fork celery farmer, whose farm is operated by share croppers, will realize the tidy profit of $12,000 from 12 acres of celery without turning his hand: nice business, this celery raising!
